For years, Kathy Bates has believed she missed thanking someone pivotal during her acceptance speech after she won the Oscar for best actress in 1991 for her performance in “Misery.” During an interview with “CBS Sunday Morning” in which she promoted her new series “Matlock,” Bates talked to Ben Mankiewicz about her Oscar moment and her mother, Bertye’s, response. “When I won the Oscar for ‘Misery,’ she said, ‘I don’t know what all the excitement [is] about, you didn’t discover the cure for cancer,’” Bates recalled. She also said she forgot to thank her mom during her acceptance speech, but Mankiewicz disputed that and showed her a video of her remarks in which she did, in fact, acknowledge her mother. Bates was shocked and became visually emotional. “Thank you,” she said to Mankiewicz. “Why did I think I didn’t thank her?”
